Abstract

Tetrahedral amorphous carbon ( ta-C) films were deposited with filtered cathodic vacuum arc by changing the substrate bias from 0V to 500V. The fraction of the sp3 bonding will be effected by the substrate bias, and the sp3 fraction is about 85% when the substrate bias is -200V. The RMS of the films decreases with the increment of the substrate bias,the surface of the film deposited at the substrate bias -200V is smoothest, and the RMS is about 0.18 nm.When the substrate bias is 0V, the friction coefficient is the highest and the antiwear ability is poor; when the substrate bias is increased from 0V, the friction coefficient decreases with the increment of the substrate bias and the antiwear ability of the films is improved because of the lower RMS and the self- Lubrication.
